turning mario kart into a sort of nintendo kart in everything but name (because mario kart is too big to change) seems like the logical progression the series would take imo after MK8/Deluxe introduced link, villager, inklings, and tracks from other franchises like f-zero, excite bike, etc so i'd love to see them go further into that, there's so much potential for characters & tracks like kirby, star fox, pikmin, etc.
but god I hope they don't waste Mario Kart 9 on the switch, it's not needed. I know it sucks for Wii U owners but the fact of the matter is most people see MK8D as a switch game, it is the switch's mario kart and with its sales they would basically just be competing with itself for no reason by releasing the next main installment on the same platform which they've never done before.
i'm praying that Nintendo was smart about this and has Mario Kart 9 as a switch successor launch title or something given how much more time they've had to develop it from not having to make a new one from scratch this gen
